Hello, recently I have encountered an issue regarding certain snapshots and their interactions in other PDF viewers after flattening. When documents flattened in Bluebeam Revu are opened in Adobe Acrobat, snapshots that were previously flattened are able to be selected and edited. Is there a way to have snapshots flatten…
1- On-site usage of Bluebeam Cloud is highly convenient and effective. However, it would be greatly beneficial to incorporate a "Notes" feature similar to that available in Bluebeam Revu into the markup tools. This enhancement would enable users to add comments more efficiently, without compromising the document’s…
I frequently copy excerpts from a PDF using the 'Snapshot' tool ('G' keyboard shortcut) and paste them into emails and chat (MS Outlook & Teams). I love that it can retain vector data and have customized resolution. However, I ran into an issue trying to copy the full page. Even with a basic, unlocked, 8.5x11 page with…
This week, we're highlighting the Snapshot tool! Did you know the Snapshot tool allows you to copy text, images, or vector graphics and paste them as new vector images? You may be asking yourself, "Is the Snapshot tool different than copying/pasting?" And the answer is yes! The Snapshot tool allows you to retain the vector…
Is there a shortcut to colorize snapshots? I use the snapshot tool quite a bit to take a snip of something and then overlay on another drawing. After pasting that snapshot, I will typically right-click and chose "Change Color" and select colorize and have it changed to red so I can distinguish from the snapshot and the…
Is there a way to crop a snapshot to remove unwanted content without flattening, or taking a new snapshot? My use case is to use a single snapshot multiple times, then crop each of them once pasted and placed in position. I appreciate i may need to just take multiple snapshots, however this would mean i am required to have…
I am referring to this. When Bluebeam Revu x64 is open, and I've not noticed it before, this pops up when I press the screenshot button. That would be fine except it removes the screenshot data if I wait too long. It also doesn't let me paste into other applications. I would prefer to disable this feature completely. I've…
We would like to preset the Mask colour of a symbol so that this doesn't need to be edited afterwards for every snapshot while creating a library from a PDF with all the symbols on a white background. It is a lot of repetative work to change the colour White of every symbol to transparant. Also it would be great to have a…
When I attach a capture photo to a markup (generally a photo of an on site condition located on the drawings) the capture pop-up shows up. This is great, but it would be nice if this pop-up acted like a typical Microsoft Window. I would like it to have features such as, moving to another screen, maximizing or minimizing,…
When you need to take a snap of a portion of a pdf to prepare a new pdf document then it is always better to use the tool Snapshot (keyboard shortcut G) rather than taking Printscreen. By this we can avoid blurring of the snap / image.
Is there a way to select specifically objects instead of creating Poly Shapes in Revu to delete page content? If there's not, Bluebeam should think about selecting lines in the same way you can Adobe to delete content. This would help me keep text in the middle of a line I may be trying to delete, or vice versa. Only way…

How can I increase the size of Fonts in the menu, tabs and expecially in the index to documents?
When I am creating a callout, is there a way for the text box to auto size to the text that I type in? See below
I pick Edit > PDF Content > Erase Content Won't easer the W Pick more then the W its gone.
Since I updated to version 2.6.1 I cannot see any pdf pages now. Document opens and title shows in tab, but cannot see any pages - anyone else have this problem?
Hey guys, Lately when I've been marking up a pdf using the typewriter tool, it randomly stops working and clicking on the typewriter button doesn't do anything. When it does stop working, I'm unable to edit the properties of any other type of markup as well, including markups on a different PDF. The only way I've been able…
A coworker just asked how to go full-screen on a PDF, and I showed him the "full screen and Presentation options. One issue that came up was that the shortcut for Presentation (ctrl+Enter) didn't work. Any ideas why?
Could someone guide me on how to initiate and complete a Secondary Steel (For an Example: Bent Plate, Angles, CMU Wall Supports, Sill Angle….) project using Bluebeam? A video tutorial would be preferable for better understanding.
Hi folks, This question came in from a sales associate. Has anyone found a way for Bluebeam v 21 to sign the user when the desktop app is closed? It's not a native capability according to Bluebeam Support website but it kind of sounds like a script can be created for this. Thank you for looking. Vinnie
Hi everyone, It's my first time posting and I just started using the markup list for reporting, but I'm running into issues in Revu 21.6. 1)Exporting Non-Comment Text: A Markup Summary report includes text from the drawing that is not a comment. I presumed this happens because the text is editable? The goal is to filter…
My expectation is that having the ability to create a legend within a Bluebeam session would be very useful for the project. I hope the Bluebeam R&D team considers including this feature in a future update
